On July 20, 1988, something amazing happened. It marked the end of the marketing world as we know it. On that date, the number of Americans aged 35-59 surpassed those aged 18-24. Now the gap is widening, and never again in our lifetime will this trend reverse.

This is an important statistic for anyone who plans on doing any kind of business! Furthermore, the 35-64 majority control $3 out of every $4 of purchasing power. With children grown, mortgages paid and peak earning potential realized, these are the consumers marketers are now striving to reach.

In Syracuse, nobody delivers the 35-64 audience better than WSEN 92.1. This lead is growing as many of this affluent majority discovers our unique brand of music.

WSEN’s audience is almost equally split between men and women, most of which are in their late 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. The audience tends to have higher than average household incomes, own their own home, and are likely to own 3 or more vehicles! They’re the ‘Boomer Consumers’ who have the highest discretionary income of any age group.
